Bi

Hi all
Just a quick question
As we are half way through the BR forms, what happens if you have noone to buy the BI?
We are on our own in this and although we are both finding it really stressfull we want to be totally clued up before we take the plunge.
Hopefully we can keep our house ( see other threads ).
Thanks all

    Hi Zoe,

    If the B.I is negligible or negative then you buy the B.I yourselves for a nominal £1 plus O.R's legal fees of £211; that's what we did. Obviously if the B.I was a bigger figure then the O.R would want to know how you raised the cash. Again, not a problem if a friend or relative lent you the money.
